Neverwinter Nights
Game: Neverwinter Nights Publisher: Atari Reviewer: Wyrdmaster Review Dated: 19th, September 2002 Reviewer’s Rating: 6/10 [ On the ball ] Total Score: 100 Average Score: 7.14 I’ll stand up and admit it; I think Neverwinter Nights is overrated. It looks good but it doesn’t look all that better than Dungeon Siege. I uses core […]
Dungeon Siege
Game: Dungeon Siege Publisher: Microsoft Reviewer: Wyrdmaster Review Dated: 19th, September 2002 Reviewer’s Rating: 7/10 [ Good ] Total Score: 44 Average Score: 5.50 Microsoft’s Dungeon Siege isn’t really a roleplaying game. It’s a lot of fun though. Why isn’t Dungeon Siege a roleplaying game? You don’t really do any roleplaying. Sure, you play […]
Arcanum
Game: Arcanum Publisher: Havas Interactive Reviewer: Wyrdmaster Review Dated: 19th, September 2002 Reviewer’s Rating: 7/10 [ Good ] Total Score: 74 Average Score: 7.40 Arcanum needs to be given a chance or two. I gave it three. My first character, a gnome pistol duellist, killed himself with three successive misfires before the first monster […]

Traditionally I’m not a fan of pre-written adventures. Most just don’t seem to be worth the […]
Wild Spellcraft
Game: Wild Spellcraft Publisher: Natural 20 Press Series: d20 Reviewer: Wyrdmaster Review Dated: 19th, September 2002 Reviewer’s Rating: 6/10 [ On the ball ] Total Score: 6 Average Score: 6.00 The core idea in Wild Spellcraft is a rocky steady one. Wouldn’t it be better if magic was a little less scientific? Magic works […]
The Book of the Righteous
Game: The Book of the Righteous Publisher: Green Ronin Series: d20 Reviewer: Wyrdmaster Review Dated: 17th, September 2002 Reviewer’s Rating: 10/10 [ Breathtaking ] Total Score: 13 Average Score: 6.50 It was sacrilegious. I read most of The Book of the Righteous either in bed or here beside the PC. You just have to […]
Assassin’s Handbook
Game: Assassin’s Handbook Publisher: Green Ronin Series: d20 Reviewer: Wyrdmaster Review Dated: 17th, September 2002 Reviewer’s Rating: 5/10 [ Perfectly acceptable ] Total Score: 5 Average Score: 5.00 One of my favourite companies in the d20 scene at the minute are Green Ronin. The quality of their writing is top of the line and […]
Oathbound
Game: Oathbound Publisher: Bastion Press Series: d20 Reviewer: Wyrdmaster Review Dated: 14th, September 2002 Reviewer’s Rating: 9/10 [ Something special ] Total Score: 11 Average Score: 3.67 Oathbound is a truly impressive book. Physically the book is impressive; a scary tally of 352 pages, solid hardcover, full colour and plenty of sinewy illustrations. Oathbound: […]
